Ive been using T shirt transfer for years. But you need a hot roller to do it
That's interesting. I didn't have any success with that, but may have had the wrong sort of transfer paper.
Wax paper 😊❤❤❤ excellent technique. Thank you so much for sharing
Thanks very much!
If you use T shirt transfer paper, the trick is to remove the paper leaving the image behind. without leaving torn paper. The way is to gradually remove the paper whilst applying it with the hot roller, so roll the paper back whilst still hot, If some of the image comes off with the paper, then put it back again and re-apply the heat and continue to do so, until you have a complete image. On some papers, you may need to apply a thin layer of shellac before applying it. Or alternatively, a ver. weak PVA wash. The way to break up the solid image is to hit the edge of the book on the edge of the bench until all the pages are separated
Thanks very much!
Do you think this would work as a hidden fore edge image? If I set the book up in the press with the long edge fanned out… 🤔
I'm trying to do that today, I'll let you know how it works!
I tried it, and it works fairly well, but you can't leave any extra paper at the top edge, or it will crinkle against the top board and ruin the image!
